Almost every game that remains on my wishlist for a long time doesn't have regional price. SiN Gold was the only one exception I bought, because there is no Wages Of Sin in the Steam release.

Alan Wake will also remain in my wishlist forever or until someone gives it to me. The reason is the negligence of GOG staff. There was the wrong promotion end date in the Russian announcement of the return of Alan Wake series to the store, so I missed the discount. The Russian-speaking staff didn't even apologize for this situation and didn't correct the announcement to hide the mistake they made. That's why I decided that I would never buy Alan Wake on GOG (no matter how huge the discount will be) and stay with the Steam version.

I tend toward the opposite. My Steam wishlist is about 10 items and my GOG wishlist is probably around 80... and I almost never remove anything... just add.
I almost purchased a 360 for Witcher 2, Gothic, Alan Wake, and a few others... but haven't pulled the cord on that. I keep wondering with the Alan Wake rights reverting back to the devs whether they'll release a PS version?

Yeah, definitely want to play Alan Wake this year one way or another.
YES! Been waiting for this game forever.

I feel the same way with DOS. I ran out of steam with DOS I and even with the crazy good reviews for DOS II, I just haven't felt compelled enough to buy it... yet.

I'd bite the bullet and get a 360, tbh....they are dirt cheap for most in the states(just buy one with small HDD and then a larger used HDD).

Spellforce 2. Played it back in the day (I think I may even still have the discs), love it, but it seems there's always something else to get.

Now and then I go through and clean up my wishlist. Right now it's got 55 items on it, and that's kinda ridiculous.

Dungeons and dragons bases games re-realased as remastered ir whatever... Because you know... Beamdog?
I'm really feel regretful, beacuse I don't buy Baldurs gate 1&2 and Planescape when they where on discount before beamdog got the rights to distribute them :'(

Until recently The Lion King and Aladdin.
Unfortunately, I just couldn't make myself part with
the $20 to buy them before they disappeared.

Heh, seeing people here say it's too much to have dozens of games on wishlist when others have several hundred. I for one have 94 at the moment, but ranking by priority, just 3 as medium (nothing was ever high), and 56 set as just watching, no foreseeable intention of buying even if there'd be no regional price hikes and regardless of discount.

Gosh... there are quite a few. Bloodrayne has sat there for at least a year, as has Cuphead. Kerbal Space Program and Divinity: Original Sin, too. For some of them, I don't think my laptop could run them, and given my current family situation I can't upgrade like I was hoping to. For others, they seem interesting but get pushed aside when other games on my wishlist are put on sale for less.

Oh, and I've got like 5 movies on my wishlist. They literally never go on sale, so I've never bought them.

I'm aware of what I wrote in my title. It is entirely possible, note that I'm not commenting on probability, but it is entirely possible that we are all just living in a simulation. Unfortunately I can't fit that sentence in the title, and since The Sims 2 is one of my favourite games of all time, and this is a gaming retail website, I went with that.

Like I said, I've only gotten into RPGs in the last 2 to 3 years, but I wasn't comparing Nox or DD to BG, just to Ultima, because from what I've read and seen, Ultima 6 is turn based, and Ultima 7 is real-time, as are Nox and DD, although it sounds, from what you said, that I am mistaken in thinking that. Obviously, I still have a lot to learn, but my copy of the CRPG book arrived the other day, so here's hoping that might help.

EDIT: Nevermind, I just realised what you meant, and no, I did not realise that. Thank you for pointing it out, I'm off to change it.

Don't get D:OS for the storytelling, the Divinity games aren't all that great in that department, unless you like long flowery dialogues about nothing in particular, lot of puns and fourth wall breaking humour. But the turn-based combat is really fun, maybe the most fun you can have with a turn-based RPG.

Hm, I wouldn't say it's that representative of the genre, because IIRC it was not a loot fest like most of them are, there aren't that many stats and skills to take care of, you had to use the keyboard in addition to clicking the mouse, and it was comparably short and linear. I'd say it's a more like ARPG lite. But it's been ages since I played it.

I have over 120 games on my wishlist pretty much for these exact reasons. Some have been there for a long time because when I finally decide to pull the trigger on a game purchase, there's usually something else I want to spend my money on first.

This is exactly why I've held off from DOS II. IMO DOS I undermined the narrative thrust of the story (certainly the fear of consequences) with too much light-hearted joking. TBH it feels like instead of working on D&D, Larian should have adapted some Terry Pratchet books. I'd certainly buy a Discworld game from Larian.

For me, it's sequels. I usually want to play the games in order, even if a later game is superior. But I don't get to the later game if I don't reach a certain satisfactory level of the first.
